Down to execution! Mavs with two massive drives and we missed ours. Big boy time.

Ouch, that hurts. Mavericks have been clutch as hell all season though, not unexpected but it still hurts.

Devastating, I have no idea why all five Minnesota players would collapse on the rebound when Dallas was five-out on offense.

Powell fouls out. We go up 3 all the mo on our side. Then Mavs 7 in a row. Fudge.

Hats off. Bullock was massive with those threes. Dinwiddie was balling early on, these guys can execute. Dallas just has that experience edge when it comes to pulling out a slugfest. Wolves got to turn it up a notch next time. Well played.

Devastating, Minnesota just didn't execute down-the-stretch.

Missed foul on the final play. KAT should have been shooting FTs for the tie. Oh well, back to 7th place.

Props to JAson Kidd, he has shown some real coaching chops. Totally had us out of our game in the first half.

Tough loss. Wolves are legit. They played through adversity and came back. Nowell spin out layup really hurt.
Give plenty of credit to Dallas. No wonder why they've won so many games recently.

Best case is 5th if GSW drops most of their games, but realistically, we just need to beat Denver and get 6th.

Kinda feel like we were cheated, but also feel like we kept feeding the cold hand and taking bad shots. Prince was not the answer nor was Dlo. Bev missing that first free throw killed any chance. Should have won, could have won, didn’t get it done.

Bev shooting 2/10 from field and 3/8 from FT line was costly

This. Even just the FT's.

If he hit even close to league avg we win.

Still, it's such a nice change to be actually competing with top tier teams...
